Compliant pasta with sardines and stir fried spicy fennels.I have a nearly glutton approach to my meals. Tofu with mushrooms or artichokes or carrot (plus garlic and parsley and curry on the carrot dish.Maria Giovanna

We had sardines for dinner last night. I like them on romaine lettuce with a dressing of lemon juice, walnut oil, sea salt, and a smidge of agave for sweetness. Yum! DH had his with bread and butter (carb boy - he loves his bread) and I had a rice cake with ghee with mine. It was a perfect (quick) dinner.

I've been making broth lately, too, using fresh veggies to make soup. Most recently: beef broth with shredded carrots, minced onion & celery, fresh grated ginger, a pinch of red pepper flakes, pinto beans, and rice fusilli pasta. I may have thrown a couple of handfuls of baby spinach in that, too. I usually do. I could eat that soup for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I think I did. Using rice or rice-pasta in the soup keeps my rice portions down too, which I need to do.

Other favorites recently (since starting BTD and SWAMI) have been carrot & parsnip latkes (with fresh ginger), lentil patties with curry powder and cilantro, salmon burgers using canned salmon. I'll use fresh salmon for burgers, too, if I can get wild caught. And I'm loving how wonderfully paired ginger and carrots are. I used to dislike cooked carrots, but I love them now.

At the moment I am enjoying minced organic beef with steamed (e.g. Kale and cabbage) and stir fry vegetables (like shallots and other onions plus garlic) in olive oil. I also add a number of spices like turmeric and paprika. I am very fussy on meat but have a real liking for the red.

In fact, all these years I have taken omega oils and although they helped to a certain extent with hydration of the skin, it never consistently worked, especially on my hands. Since within one week of eating five to six 4 - 7 ounce portions of red meat per week, the omega 6 fatty acids (I assume) in the meat has totally made my skin so much better. I never thought I'd live to see the day. I don't exfoliate my skin but since eating red meat you'd think I did.

I tried a new blender drink recently and was surprised how good it was. Rice milk, protein powder, 1/2 can of pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger and a few ice cubes. I often make things for myself just because the ingredients are good for me, even though they might not taste the best, but I REALLY enjoyed this.

Figs and nuts and ginger. Or dates and nuts and ginger. Or figs and cream cheese and ginger. Throw in some sea salt and carob powder and you have something heavenly.

That and pumpkin and nuts and ginger. With a little cinnamon and honey. Walnuts, almonds and peanuts. Macadamia nuts.

There are actually so many, I can't make up my mind. But I have to say, I am a ginger lover of the highest order. I bet I eat more ginger in a day than anyone else on here. I need to farm my own, except I don't think it grows up here. Maybe I need to set up something inside.

I eat very plain food. There are two meals I do look forward to and one is shoulder cut lamb chop baked in the oven in a glass dish with a lid. With that I like green beans with basil and carrots with dill. The other meal that I have once in awhile is rice angel hair pasta with olive oil with topping of ground turkey with Italian seasoning and lots of different color sweet peppers cut up all over this. I do use a bit of sea salt on top.

I'll cut up a beef roast into smaller pieces, lay it out in a roasting pan, slather it with lots of onions, some spices, and top with some tomato juice. Then let it cook in the oven for several hours. Comes out falling apart. Hubby & I both like that. I tried it with lamb pieces too, and it was good also.
